Join Us in Making a Difference
Volunteering with the Youth Assistance Program (YAP) is more than just giving your time—it’s about creating meaningful change for youth and families facing challenging life circumstances in our community. Our program relies on the dedication and compassion of volunteers to provide essential services, build lasting relationships, and help youth and families overcome obstacles. Whether you’re able to give a few hours or make a longer commitment, your involvement can make a profound impact.
Ways to Get Involved
As a board member, you’ll play a critical role in guiding our organization’s mission, supporting fundraising efforts, and advocating for youth and families. Board members provide strategic leadership and serve as ambassadors within the community, helping to secure the resources that make our programs possible.
Committee members work behind the scenes to plan events, support specific projects, and develop program initiatives. Your expertise and enthusiasm can help our programs grow, reach new families, and provide even more support to those who need it most.
Mentors and tutors provide direct, one-on-one support to youth, building confidence, academic skills, and positive relationships. These roles are at the heart of our program, allowing youth to receive guidance, encouragement, and skills that last a lifetime.
From event volunteers to project assistants, the ways to get involved are endless. Whether you have a few hours to give or are looking for a long-term commitment, there is a volunteer role that fits your interests and schedule.
The Need for Donors
While our volunteers bring invaluable support to our programs, financial contributions are equally essential. Donations allow us to sustain and expand our services, providing everything from tutoring and mentoring to food assistance and mental health resources. Donors play a crucial role in building a safety net for families, helping youth access the resources they need to grow and succeed.
